Governors urge Congress to extend wind tax credits
A bipartisan group of four governors led by Kansas Governor Sam Brownback and Senator Chuck Grassley urged Congress during a Tuesday telephone news conference to extend the wind production tax credit beyond 2012. They warned of stalled wind energy growth without federal support and proposed a phased extension over three to four years. Governors Branstad, Kitzhaber, and Hickenlooper joined Brownback and Grassley in calling for action, noting wind job losses in Iowa and rising investments in Colorado. Brownback cited Siemens Wind Power in Hutchinson and Ford County wind farms as examples of wind industry impact.
